"ZOFO's feisty performances surge with athletic precision, joy" - WASHINGTON POST
Dazzling audiences from Carnegie Hall to Tokyo Japan, Grammy-nominated ZOFO has blazed a bold new path for piano-four-hands as one of only a handful of duos worldwide devoted exclusively to piano duets. Focusing on 20th and 21st century repertoire, as well as original works, internationally acclaimed pianists Eva-Maria Zimmermann and Keisuke Nakagoshi perform heart-pumping duet arrangements, exploring the realms in which many composers first experience their symphonic visions.
ZOFO, shorthand for 20-finger orchestra (ZO=20 and FO= finger orchestra), arrives to Berkeley City Club to present a program of adventurous orchestral works which promise to electrify and inspire.
